From the Philadelphia Press.

ness in Camdens Marriage Mart.
From. the Philadelphia Press
DR.. George Dean, one of Fairnount's
most prominent citizens and well known in
political circles of the Fifteenth ward, was
married to Mrs. Ann A Wilson, widow of
80 years, by Justice James NJ. Cassidy, at
his Camden residence, 12S Federal street, on
Thursday, ten minutes after he had finished
the double Irish Chinese union.
DIR. Dean is also so years old and has re-
sided in Paramount for sixty years, having
come to this country from Donegal, Ireland.
He began his American career as a cobbler,
and by his sixty years labor at the bench
has acquired considerable money He has
also gained quite a reputation in the last
few years as a veterinary surgeon. The
doctor has also been active in politics for
forty years and is now judge of election in
the Thirty division of the Fifteenth
ward.
Monday, the Fourth of July, was selected
as the wedding day. but it was postponed
until Tuesday, when they sought the advice
of Mr.. Peter Curry, who advised them to go
to Camden and he would act as best man
Accordingly they proceeded to Justice Cas-
sady's marriage establishment, where they
answered the usual questions in satisfactory
manner. Both acknowledged to 50 years of
life
Very few knew of the wedding until Mr.
Curry told friend. His friend told an
other, and it spread like wild fire by 0
o'clock in the evening. At that time their
house on Candy Row" was besieged by
friends and others who had heard the pc
culiar news, all intent on giving the couple
a hearty welcome and serenade. Tavern
keeper John Cain sent as a wedding present
a half barrel of beer, which was followed
by more from almost every saloon keener i'm
the vicinity. 80 that in half an hour no less
than six barrels stood on the walk.
The house in which the wedding festivi-
ties were held might possibly hold fifteen
persons comfortably, but fully three times
that number gained admittance and par
took of the old doctors hospitality. The
house itself is about twice as old ms the doc
tor, having served as a barrack during the
war of the Revolution. II Is one story in
height and has only one room, workshop
and kitchen Into this small space about
forty people sat last night and drank the
contents of two half barrels of beer. Crowds
filled Twenty-fourth and Brandywine
streets and Pennsylvania avenue and sere-
naded the bridal couple to tine music of the
Ronaldson Brass Band
Officer Rooney, of the Ninth district, kept
the good-natured crowd in order until keg
Of beer was tapped on the steps. Then they
became disorderly and beyond control.
They procured fireworks and large torpe-
does, and bombarded the sides OF the old
barracks. Finally they tore away the stoop.
Inside the house the Jackson Social sang
number of songs, and the s0-year-old couple
responded with ''When You and / were
Young" amid tremendous applause. Mr..
Curry and Joe McGilloway were masters of
ceremonies. During the tumult the mar
rage certificate was stolen.

The Activity of women.

One of the conspicuous tendencies Of
the times is the increasing activity OF
women as an independent factor in the
worlds progress. Within the past
twenty years she has made a wonderful
advancement in the line of self.assertion.
There is to-day scarcely any avocation,
says the Virginia Chronicle, and no pro.
f%ession, in which she does not shine.
She is in the pulpit. She runs for Office.
She feeds the sick on physic. She is the
ministering angel of hospital. She
pleads before the public tribunals. She
edits the newspapers. She writes more
books than man. She is a school teacher.
She is a n inventor. She draws big
salaries on the stage. She works in
factories. She manages large stores.
She is cashier, clerk, bookkeeper, and
everything else that man makes a living
by. There is no doubt that her com.
petition is giving man a close race.
Thousands of young men loaf around
the street corners, and complain of not
being able to obtain situations; but
while they loaf the young women secure
the places, do the work, and draw the
salaries.

The people will now be obliged to pay
more taxes to a private corporation than
they do to the general Government. This
may, on its face, appear to be an absurd.
ity, but it is nevertheless an alarming
fact. The Standard Oil Company has
succeeded in forming a combination OF
all the coal oil producers and has an.
nounced the intention of doubling the
price of oil. That they can do such a
thing and that it will be permitted by
the Government is a most startling com.
mentary. That such a devil.fsh as this
coal oil monopoly will be allowed to suck
the life blood of the entire people is truly
appalling.
In view of such a state of affairs can
any one be surprised that the poorer PEG.
pie are becoming FESTIVE and turn a will.

Ideas Of truth, honesty and justice are
termine his W rights and manfully de-
fend them. A we'll balanced, disciplined
mind cannot be obtained without educa-
ton. This education and rightful train.
ing SHOULD be given him by his parents;
upon him will the family depend, but
upon him also devolves the duty of sup.
porting the authority of his parents and
receiving from them that guidance which
his youth and inexperience will need.
The life of a nation like the life of a
man may be prolonged into the f~ullness
of its time, or it may perish prematurely
for want of guidance, by internal dis.
orders.
The natural facilities Of a nation mod.
ify its industries, commerce and re.
sources. and thus influence its stability.
But these external conditions only do
not add to the vitality of a nation. There
is no question but land so productive
and q climate so good as Europe could
sustain more inhabitants, if the European
Governments favored the rights of the
common people. They still cling to the
idea Of the ancients, that stability lies in
the extent of territory, forgetting that
with all the nations of the past the con.
querors were themselves conquered. A
nations existence depends less on its
wealth than on its moral conditions and
the governing laws of its people. A
most important foundation of a nation
is morality. No family, no people, no
nation can exist that does not observe
the everlasting principles of morality.
1t is the corner stone of a government
and is everywhere so recognized. No
names are allowed on the rolls of our
most prominent associations without
moral qualities. How much more need.
full for a nation to refuse its offices to
men of no moral character. He who has
nc moral strength within himself, cannot
make laws containing principles destined
to endure. Nations come and go like
bubbles on the running brook, but God
does not change, and morality which
is His will for man changes nc more
than He.

Making War Imposing.

Col. Fred Grants stories: "Gen-
eral Custer once told me funny story
about a comrade of his, which showed
what liberties are sometimes taken
with audiences that hear lectures
upon the war. This comrade was a
brilliant writer and talker, and had
prepared a lecture on the battle of
Gettysburg. Custer met him in Phil
adelphia, and after a hearty greeting,
was given two tickets for the lecture,
which was to be delivered that night.
Il hope you will GOMEZ said the lee

His Wife's Body.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Nov. 16.-Stephen
Bailey, al old man, who is engineer at
j. c. Poucher's steam mill near a place
called Duck Pond, on the Northern
railroad, had quarreled with his wife
on Saturday and killed her with an ak.
He hid the body until nightfall, when
he procured a wheelbarrow and
carried it to the engineroom. Here he
stripped part of the clothing from it
and threw the body into the frey fur
mace. Then with cool and calm de-
liberation he filed the furnace with
wood and left it burning.
When taken to Jail he borrowed a
knife from a little son of the constable
to clean out his pipe, and at night, at
tempted unsuccessfully to commit
suicide by cutting his throat. He is
about 65, and his wife was a few years
his junior.

Beyond the valley lying low,
Through which our feet some day shall so
Beyond the high hills purple haze
That stretches far beyond our gaze,
There is a place most sweet and olest,
Which here we call the Land OF Rest.
A land with hills and valleys fair
And many of our loved are there.
So silently, and one by one,
They went the lonesome journey on.
All, with white hands upon their breast
Went out into the Land of Rest.
1 long that happy bourne to see,
1 long to know how it will be
When frat these eyes OF mine behold
The land ef which the prophets told;
OF nv inheritance possessed,
When shall | reach the Land OF Resty
On, blessed Land Oh, time so slow!
Not with reluctance l shall go,
But on my lips a happy long
That it. the day looked for so long,
Has come to take me to that blest,
That peaceful land, the Land of Rest.
